![]() God, I love this green bean casserole recipe. I’ve never been a green bean casserole person until this recipe so it really is lovely. I might also be really weird and bake the onions separately so I can add them each time I have leftovers so they’ll still be crunchy. The mustard addition I might try next time. I had to add so much salt back in at the end for it to be decent & we were still salting a little at the time of reheating. Then see at the end how much salt you need to add after Parmesan. I might keep the unsalted butter for sautéing mushrooms (mushrooms can get rubbery if you salt too early). Definitely salt the water well for boiling as others suggested. While many a casserole dish can be made ahead of time, this green bean casserole is best made day-of, so plan accordingly and use the bake time to work on a few other perfect side dishes, like our Ultra-Creamy Mashed Potatoes, a streamlined cranberry sauce, and a cornflake-topped sweet potato casserole. According to Chris, French’s Crispy Fried Onions are famous for a reason: “They are astonishingly delicious and practically define this Thanksgiving classic,” so we let them stay. You may assume Chris opted for DIY fried shallots (and you certainly could if you’re so inclined), but he threw us a curveball. Well-browned mushrooms are crucial for building flavor here, so he cooked them in batches, making sure not to season them until they were beautifully caramelized ( salting too soon will lead to soggy, steamed mushrooms). He swapped out store-bought cream of mushroom soup in favor of fresh sliced criminis and a béchamel finished with Parmesan cheese. In 2016 test kitchen director Chris Morocco set out to develop his ideal version of the classic green bean casserole recipe. But upgrading to a homemade sauce and fresh green beans isn’t that much more difficult-and if you ask us, it tastes worlds better. ![]() ![]() And sure, you could go with the tried-and-true French’s Green Bean Casserole (with canned soup and canned green beans, it’s certainly the easy choice). There are nearly as many variations as there are Thanksgiving tablescapes. According to Campbell’s Soup Company, which is responsible for the original recipe, it’s served at 20 million tables every year. For many, no Thanksgiving side dish spread is complete without a homemade green bean casserole.
